Good news, bad news: Rams’ Cooper Kupp not placed on injured list but is wearing cast
LA TimesRams receiver Cooper Kupp is wearing a cast on his injured ankle and could miss several games. On a day the Rams placed safety John Johnson III and offensive lineman Jonah Jackson on the team’s seemingly never-ending list of players on injured reserve, the Rams did not take that step with Kupp, who suffered an ankle injury Sunday during a defeat to the Arizona Cardinals. “As of right now, we won’t do that,” McVay said before the Rams began practice for Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers. “We certainly missed him in those two weeks that he wasn’t here,” said McVay, who declined to specify why Jackson was suspended. “So I’m just going to move past it.” Logan Bruss, a 2022 third-round draft pick, will start at left guard in place of Jonah Jackson.
